Hey, I'm Dennon and I'm new to the boards. I've been reading these boards for about a year and finally decided I need to join in on the discussion. Reds fan all my life and I'm ready to vent and hopefully celebrate with you guys through out the season!

Nice to meet you, Dennon.

This is starting to feel like a drinking game.

Welcome, Dennon. Whatcha drinkin'?

And have we ever welcomed Verka Seduchka? It seems like he/she was here occasionally last year but he/she has had a greater presence over the past coupla weeks, no? Or am I just thinking of all the other Ukrainian drag queens in my life?

Anyway... welcome, Verduchka. Whatcha drinkin'?

Thanks Fat Al, I am also a long time reader who has recently found my voice here- partly cause I have a job now that often involves afternoons in front of a desk and a computer, but mostly cause I am ready to contribute a bit to this here community of Reds fanatics.

I am about to be drinking me some presidente light, the beer of choice for all Ukranian drag queens, living in the Dominican Republic.

Tanzen!

Wow.

Maldito HTML!

It only took an hour to figure out how to do the whole hyperlink thingy but now I think I got.

In fact, I got it bad.

Tanzen!

Hey, be nice to the new guy.

This situation reminds me of a scene in the movie "New Jack City"... (-Deion Sanders)

Kudos to you for making it twice.

And welcome.

"The New Guy" is a really funny movie. Oh, and I would drink Eliza Dushku's bath water.

I think he's just really savvy

and made it to the 300-word limit without saying something that didn't need to be said. So good job! Good job!

Two Dunns enter, but only one Dunn leaves...unless neither do because they decide to hunt, play cards, drink and fish. -Slyde

I was new once...

well twice, no maybe three or four times...So it is never too late to be the new guy.What's your take on Dustbag, TheClashing Dude?

Core dude - Dustbag's core is not the core that is the core.

Dustbag

Pretty much I have the same take on him as everybody else. Worried he's going to play all of the old guys instead of our good young talent. I'm worried that all it will go to waste. I'm afraid Hatty's going to start, afraid Patty's going to start. I wouldn't put it out of the question that he'll start a veteran like Patterson over Dunn...okay that was sarcastic. But I did hear he's kind of racist, playing black players of white just because? Anybody think there is any truth to that?

This is where the Dusty racism idea comes from

Sorry about that.

not at all offended

I've seen the line used many times; just didn't know what the reference to Coors Light was.

It was a silly joke.

But here's part of the background for the silly joke.

So, there's background and then there's context (for lack of a better term). And well, I don't feel like explaining the context so can I just leave it at "silly joke"?
